Question to the HM Treasury:
To ask Her Majesty's Government, what is the projected annual expenditure on the Trader Support Service for each of the next three years.
The total estimated spend for the Trader Support Service (TSS) in the year 2022-23 is £99 million. There is currently no projected spend in the subsequent two years. We continue to work up options for the end of the TSS’s initial two-year contract period to December 2022 and await the outcome of the negotiations currently underway for the Northern Ireland Protocol.
